I’m so excited to be heading out on my first ever tour, doing what I do best but on the big stage. I can’t wait to get out there and visit so many great parts of the UK, this show is going to be super cool. I’m pulling out my favourite recipes and mixing in plenty of surprises and special guests in what I hope is going to be feast of a live show. Hope to see you there!”

James was born in 1972 in Malton, Yorkshire. He was brought up on the Castle Howard estate where his father worked as a catering manager. At 16 he began his formal training at Scarborough Technical College, where he was Student of the Year for three years running.

After catering college James went to work for Antony Worrall Thompson in the kitchens of One Ninety Queen’s Gate in London. James went on to work for many leading chefs in London including Marco Pierre White. He then toured France, working in chateaux kitchens and gaining experience in Michelin star establishments. When he moved back to England, he took up a position as junior pastry chef at the acclaimed Chewton Glen.

In 1994, just a few weeks short of his 22nd birthday, James opened the Hotel and Bistro du Vin in Winchester as head chef, where he became famous for changing the menu every day. It was a spring-board to the hotel opening up nine more hotels over the next 10 years.

In late 2013 James joined Mary Berry as co-judge on the Junior Bake Off on CBBC. Screened over two weeks, viewers saw forty bakers compete to be Junior Bake Off Champion by completing Technical Bakes and Showstopper Challenges. The show went on to win a BAFTA for Children’s Entertainment.
